First, there are "preview" plugins for vim, you might want to look at
them
first:
https://github.com/suan/vim-instant-markdown

Other than that, -well, I'm unsure about the availablitlity on Centos7-,
but there are:

* "ReText" (switchable preview)
https://github.com/retext-project/retext
* "Remarkable" (Live previev side by side)
http://remarkableapp.github.io/
* "Atom" (not native, slow) http://atom.io/
* "Sublime Text" (Pay-ware) http://www.sublimetext.com/
* "Typora" (not tested by me) https://typora.io/
* "Haroopad" (Discontinued) http://pad.haroopress.com/
(this list is not in any way complete)

for more info, have a look at the article on tecmint.com:
  https://www.tecmint.com/best-markdown-editors-for-linux/

and on slant.co there is a more up-do-date article:

Another hint: finding packages for progams can be a timeconsuming job,
sites like https://pkgs.org/ makes it easier.
